In The Shade Of His Wings
Author: James Nicholson, 1828-1876; Richard W. Adams Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12612 First Line: In God I have found a retreat Refrain First Line: Oh, precious the comfort it brings Lyrics: 1 In God I have found a retreat
Where I can securely reside;
No refuge, nor rest so complete,
And here may I always abide.
Refrain:
Oh, precious the comfort it brings,
And sweet is my song as it rings;
No danger or harm do I fear,
Secure in the shade of His wings.
2 I dread not the terror by night,
Nor arrow that flies in the day;
His shadow has covered my head,
My fears He has driven away. [Refrain]
3 The pestilence stalking about,
When darkness has settled abroad,
Can never persuade me to doubt
The presence and power of God. [Refrain]
4 The wasting destruction at noon,
No fearful foreboding can bring;
With Jesus, my soul does commune,
His perfect salvation I sing. [Refrain]
5 A thousand may fall at my side,
Ten thousand may die in the land;
Above me His wings are spread wide,
Beneath them in safety I stand. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: GREEN FIELDS
In The Shade Of His Wings
Hosanna To Jesus On High!
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12677 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Hosanna to Jesus on high!
Another has entered His rest;
Another escaped to the sky,
And lodged in Immanuel’s breast;
The soul of our brother is gone
To heighten the triumph above,
Exalted to Jesus’ bright throne,
And clasped in the arms of His love.
2 What fullness of rapture is there,
While Jesus His glory displays,
And purples the heavenly air,
And scatters the odors of grace!
He looks—and His servants in light
The blessing ineffable meet;
He smiles—and they faint at the sight,
And fall overwhelmed at His feet!
3 How happy the angels that fall,
Transported at Jesus’ sweet name!
The saints, whom He soonest shall call
To share in the feast of the Lamb!
No longer imprisoned in clay,
Who next from the dungeon shall fly,
Who first shall be summoned away?
My merciful God—is it I?
4 O Jesus, if this be Thy will
That suddenly I should depart,
Thy council of mercy reveal,
And whisper the call to my heart:
O give me a signal to know
If soon Thou wouldst have me remove,
And leave this dull body below,
And fly to the regions of love.
5 Thou know’st in the spirit of prayer
I groan for a speedy release,
And long I have pined to be there
Where sorrow and misery cease:
Where all the temptation is past,
And loss and affliction are o’er,
And anguish is ended at last,
And trouble and death are no more.
6 Come then to my rescue (I pray
For this, and for nothing beside)
Make ready, and bear me away,
Thy weary disconsolate bride:
The days of my mourning and pain
Cut short, and in pity set free,
And take me to rest and to reign
For ever and ever in Thee. Languages: English Tune Title: GREEN FIELDS
Hosanna To Jesus On High!
What Think Ye Of Christ?
Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13037 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: What think ye of Christ? is the test Lyrics: 1 What think ye of Christ? is the test
To try both your state and your scheme;
You cannot be right in the rest,
Unless you think rightly of Him.
2 As Jesus appears in your view,
As He is belovèd or not;
So God is disposèd to you,
And mercy or wrath are your lot.
3 Some take Him a creature to be,
A man, or an angel at most;
Sure these have not feelings like me,
Nor know themselves wretched and lost:
4 So guilty, so helpless, am I,
I durst not confide in His blood,
Nor on His protection rely,
Unless I were sure He is God.
5 Some call Him a Savior, in word,
But mix their own works with His plan;
And hope He His help will afford,
When they have done all that they can:
6 If doings prove rather too light
(A little, they own, they may fail)
They purpose to make up full weight,
By casting His name in the scale.
7 Some style Him the pearl of great price,
And say He’s the fountain of joys;
Yet feed upon folly and vice,
And cleave to the world and its toys:
8 Like Judas, the Savior they kiss,
And, while they salute Him, betray;
Ah! what will profession like this
Avail in His terrible day?
9 If asked, what of Jesus I think?
Though still my best thoughts are but poor;
I say, He’s my meat and my drink,
My life, and my strength, and my store,
10 My shepherd, my husband, my friend,
My Savior from sin and from thrall;
My hope from beginning to end,
My portion, my Lord, and my all. Languages: English Tune Title: GREEN FIELDS
What Think Ye Of Christ?
When Joseph His Brethren Behold
Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13080 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: When Joseph his brethren beheld Lyrics: 1 When Joseph his brethren beheld,
Afflicted and trembling with fear;
His heart with compassion was filled,
From weeping he could not forbear.
Awhile his behavior was rough,
To bring their past sin to their mind;
But when they were humbled enough,
He hasted to show himself kind.
2 How little they thought it was he,
Whom they had ill treated and sold!
How great their confusion must be,
As soon as his name he had told!
"I’m Joseph, your brother," he said,
"And still to my heart you are dear;
You sold me, and thought I was dead,
But God, for your sakes, sent me here."
3 Though greatly distressed before,
When charged with purloining the cup;
They now were confounded much more,
Not one of them dared to look up.
"Can Joseph, whom we would have slain,
Forgive us the evil we did?
And will he our households maintain?
O this is a brother indeed!"
4 Thus dragged by my conscience, I came,
All laden with guilt, to the Lord;
Surrounded with terror and shame,
Unable to utter a word.
At first He looked stern and severe,
What anguish then pierced my heart!
Expecting each moment to hear
The sentence, "Thou cursed, depart!"
5 But O! what surprise when He spoke,
While tenderness beamed in His face;
My heart then to pieces was broke,
O’erwhelmed and confounded by grace:
“Poor sinner, I know thee full well,
By thee I was sold and was slain;
I died to redeem thee from hell,
And raise thee in glory to reign.
6 "I am Jesus, whom thou hast blasphemed,
And crucified often afresh;
But let Me henceforth be esteemed,
Thy brother, thy bone, and thy flesh:
My pardon I freely bestow,
Thy wants I will fully supply;
I’ll guide thee and guard thee below,
And soon will remove thee on high.
7 "Go, publish to sinners around,
That they may be willing to come,
The mercy which now you have found,
And tell them that yet there is room."
O, sinners, the message obey!
No more vain excuses pretend;
But come, without further delay,
To Jesus, our brother and friend. Languages: English Tune Title: GREEN FIELDS
When Joseph His Brethren Behold
Elijah's Example Declares
Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13762 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Elijah’s example declares Lyrics: 1 Elijah’s example declares,
Whatever distress may betide,
The saints may commit all their cares
To Him who will always provide,
When rain long witheld from the earth
Occasioned a famine of bread,
The prophet, secured from the dearth,
By ravens was constantly fed.
2 More likely to rob than to feed,
Are ravens who live upon prey;
But where the Lord’s people have need,
His goodness will find out a way:
This instance to those may seem strange,
Who know not how faith can prevail;
But sooner all nature shall change,
Than one of God’s promises fail,
3 Nor is it a singular case;
The wonder is often renewed;
And many may say to God’s praise,
By ravens He sendeth them food.
Thus worldlings, tho’ ravens indeed,
Tho’ greedy and selfish their mind,
If God has a servant to feed,
Against their own wills can be kind.
4 Thus Satan the raven unclean,
That croaks in the ears of the saints,
O’erruled by a power unseen,
Administers oft to their wants;
God teaches them how to find food
From all the temptations they feel:
This raven who thirsts for my blood,
Has helped me to many a meal.
5 How safe and how happy are they
Who on the good Shepherd rely!
He’ll give them out strength for their day,
Their wants He will surely supply,
He ravens and lions can tame;
All creatures obey His command:
Then let me rejoice in His name,
And leave all my cares in His hand. Languages: English Tune Title: GREEN FIELDS

I Long To Behold Him Arrayed
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #16231 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: I long to behold Him arrayed Lyrics:
1 I long to behold Him arrayed
With glory and light from above,
The King in His beauty displayed,
His beauty of holiest love:
I languish and die to be there
Where Jesus hath fixed His abode:
O when shall we meet in the air,
And fly to the mountain of God?
2 With Him I on Sion shall stand,
For Jesus hath spoken the word,
The breadth of Immanuel’s land
Survey by the light of my Lord;
But when, on Thy bosom reclined,
Thy face I am strengthened to see,
My fullness of rapture I find,
My heaven of heavens in Thee.
